Problem With My Beretta Model 70

[Mian Jee]

Dear Pak Guner's my SALAAM to all
I have few expensive pistols in my collection and i like them all
but this is the only loved one coz' this belongs to my late FATHER.
He gave me this pistol & his Rolex Datejust some time before his death.
it is with me from eleven years but
I have'nt fired a single shot from it,
today i wanted to clean it but i was not able to disassemble it !
coz' slide lock switch is not moving at all.
i don't wan'a see any gunsmith.
sending picture so you could have a look and guide me,

Any help will be highly appreciable ....

Pull the slide half back (chambering position) so that the semi circle on the frame comes over the slide lock. Now holding the slide there move the slide lock anti-clockwise with your index finger. Then take out the upper part by sliding forward.

Dear KAKAR bro thanks for your quick reply,

i am not new to pistols,
i know exactly what to do but problem is that slide lock switch is not moving a bit,
( after pulling the slide back to that semi circle ).
I have even tried with my thumb but my thumb got numb, lol,,,
man! that lock is so DHEET :mad2:

Ok. Then spray the part with WD 40 and try again.

go nuts with wd 40 on the pistol and then give it some tough love , it will slide open .
